Earlier today, Polish extreme metal outfit Behemoth announced that they were canceling an upcoming show in Bangalore, India over what’s being described as “credible threats” from Christian groups in the area. The cancellation was announced in a social media post, in which the band issued a statement explaining the situation and their thought process behind

Judas Priest is worship music, I’ll just say it right now. The legends have a new, official documentary on their life story as a band, called The Ballad of Judas Priest, that’s rolling out. Its official preview clip just premiered on Rolling Stone, and you can watch it below. The documentary itself is currently making
Yeesh. Since all 3 trillion Epstein files have been released, we’ve been seeing some names we possibly weren’t expecting to see (but, such is life when everyone with power and money is a creep or creep-adjacent). Just look at Wasserman Media Group CEO Casey Wasserman as an example. A big name in entertainment, Wasserman has
Modern metal hard hitters Heriot released the deluxe version of their debut album Devoured by the Mouth of Hell and now they’ve released a killer single in the form of “Master of Deceit”. Dark, heavy, brooding, this track hits like a sledgehammer. Speaking of the track itself, the band describes “Master of Deceit” as such:
Mardi Gras. For so long, it’s been seen by non-New Orleans folks as an excuse to get wasted, see some titties, and collect colorful beads while parties happen all over the place. In reality, it’s got religious overtones linked to the Christian concepts of Lent and Easter. This year, however, it’s also linked to the
Sometimes, you don’t need a whole lot of time to tell an authoritarian regime to fuck right off. We’ve all been watching the steady backslide America’s been taking into fascist authoritarianism and Frozen Soul ain’t taking it anymore. Hence the release of their latest track “Absolute Zero.” Clocking in at just under one minute, the
New progressive metal outfit Blindead 23 (fka Blindead) have taken a major step in their career as a band, as they announced this week that they’ll be releasing their debut album Deuterium on just two months’ time. Comprised of ex-Behemoth guitarist Mateusz “Havoc” Smierzchalski, ex-Katatonia guitarist Roger Öjersson, and Vltimas, ex-Vader, ex-Decapitated drummer Pawel “Pavulon”
Covers can be fun. Covers can be interesting. Yet sometimes, covers can be unique, thought-provoking pieces that take the original subject material and make it their own. Such is the case for Israeli progressive/alt-metal outfit SUBMASQ, whose iteration of Rammstein’s “Mutter”, which takes the German industrial metal titans’ music and turns it into something else
Right now, there’s a tour going on that you might not want to miss. Of course, we’re talkin’ about Opeth and Katatonia cutting through the U.S. (and one stop in Canada). Both bands are titans in their own right and now fans of both can get their fill in one night. Earlier this month, we
Officials in Istanbul preemptively pulled the plug on performances by deathcore act Slaughter To Prevail and blackened death metal outfit Behemoth over what’s being described as potential issues stemming from “societal values.” In a statement posted on social media, Istanbul Governor Davut Gül explained the cancellations earlier today. In his statement, he said this decision
They may have just put out one of the most killer albums in recent memory with Krushers Of The World, but one thing you can’t say about Kreator‘s latest is that it’s a straight-up thrash metal record. It’s heavy as fuck, has death metal aspects sprinkled in throughout, and really takes pages from other metal
Canada’s own Voivod have a lot going on lately, as they’re not only working on recording a brand new album, but they’ve got a live album in the works, a new video game being developed, and they just dropped a new music video for a classic track. So yeah, I’d say they’re busy as fuck.
Wes Borland for president, for real. The Limp Bizkit guitarist has been quite open about how dumb and shitty and unneeded Trump supporters are, having received backlash for comments he made last week on his Instagram story. He’s since doubled down on that, which will hopefully make more Cheeto lovers exit his ether. His previous
Major sad news from the 3 Doors Down camp. The band just shared that founding member and vocalist Brad Arnold has sadly passed away at 47 due to cancer. Arnold shared about his diagnosis on Instagram back in May 2025, which led to the band canceling their summer 2025 tour. The band’s post reads: “With
Fans that went out to see Nine Inch Nails down in New Orleans got to be among the first to witness a major change in the band, as they got to see multi-genre bassist Stu Brooks handling the low end for the band. The ‘Peel It Back’ tour kicked off yesterday, serving as the perfect
Okay, I know this post has to do with sports so I’m going to lose some of you, but give me a second. One of the coolest things about the NHL is the fact that the goalies get to have custom artwork on their helmets. It’s a great opportunity to let dudes express themselves while
The British are coming! The British are coming — to play some metalcore here in the States and Canada. Both Malevolence and Guilt Trip will be touring North America this spring for their aptly named ‘United Kingdom Metal and Hardcore Across North America 2026’ tour. Set to kick off on March 31 in Detroit and
For roughly a decade and a half, Slipknot fans have wondered one thing: what the fuck is Look Outside Your Window and when is it coming out? Well, we finally have a release date and it’s coming up pretty soon — just don’t expect it to have Slipknot’s name emblazoned on it. Set to be
Swiss folky/melodic death metal outfitEluveitie are going to be hitting the road in their proverbial back yard, as they announced an European tour set to take place this winter. Kicking off on November 11 in Brussels, Belgium and coming to a close on December 13 in Zurich, Switzerland, the tour will see Eluveitie play venues
Though there was a lot of good will felt during the Ozzy Osbourne segment during this year’s ‘In Memoriam’ segment during the 68th Annual GRAMMY Awards, one snub really rubbed metalheads the wrong way. You see, one man that was left off the segment was ex-Mastodon guitarist Brent Hinds — and that really pissed off
